Open Car Transport

The most popular and affordable way to ship a vehicle — the same method used to deliver new cars to dealerships.

Open car transport moves your vehicle on an open-air, multi-car carrier. It's the most widely available and cost-effective option, and it's how the vast majority of vehicles — including brand-new cars — are shipped across the country.

What's included

  • Door-to-door pickup and delivery
  • A vetted, FMCSA-compliant carrier with verified cargo insurance
  • No upfront deposit — pay only once a carrier is assigned
  • Live updates from pickup to delivery

Is open transport right for me?

Open transport is ideal for daily drivers, SUVs, trucks, online purchases, and relocations. If you're shipping a luxury, classic, or exotic vehicle, consider enclosed transport instead.
